a) Choose Service Tools > Maintenance > Routine Maintenance > SMV > Manual Verification.
b) Choose Upload Results Data from Device.
The Field Communicator stores only the most recent test result. To view earlier results, you must
upload them from the device. They will be available only for the current session.
c) Choose Show Results Table.
The Field Communicator displays detailed results for the first test.

Understanding SMV results
When the SMV test is completed, the result is reported as Pass, Fail, or Abort. (Some tools report the Fail
result as Advisory instead.)
Pass
Smart Meter Verification does a statistical check between the factory baseline value, field reference
point, and the current Smart Meter Verification result. Pass indicates that the two values are
statistically the same.
Fail
The current SMV value is statistically different than the factory baseline value and field reference
point.
• If the meter passes the second test, the first result can be ignored.
• If the meter fails the second test, the flow tubes may be damaged or coated. Use your process
knowledge to determine the possibilities for damage and the appropriate actions for each. These
actions might include removing the meter from service and physically inspecting the tubes. At
minimum, you should perform a flow validation and a density calibration.
Abort
A problem occurred with the meter verification test (such as process instability) or you stopped the
test manually. See Table 12-1 for a list of abort codes, a description of each code, and possible
actions you can take in response.
Table 12-1: SMV abort codes
Code Description Recommended actions
1 User-initiated abort None required. Wait 15 seconds before starting another test.
2 SMV Timeout Check status of pickoff and drive coils.
3 Pickoff Voltage Low Check status of pickoff and drive coils.
4 Temperature unstable Ensure temperature is stable. Start again.
5 Cal state in progress NOT AVAILABLE
6 Unused NOT AVAILABLE
7 Drive loop AGC reported an
amplitude error
Check the status of the pickoff and the drive coils.
8 High flow (dt) standard deviation Verify there is no flow and start again.
9 High flow (dt) mean value Verify there is no flow and start again.
